Google Classroom now includes built-in tools to record audio, video, and screencasts directly within the platform. This allows teachers and students to record and post multimodal content in announcements, assignments, and private comments without using external apps.
This update can streamline how you provide feedback and instructions. By integrating recording tools directly into your workflow, you can capture your screen or voice instantly, which helps with clarity in technical subjects, language fluency feedback, and accessibility for students who struggle with written text.
How to Get Started
- You can find the new recording tools anywhere you typically create content (Announcements, Assignments, Materials, or Private Comments).
- Navigate to the Stream or Classwork tab and click the area where you want to post.
- Look for the new Record button in the toolbar.
- Select your recording type: Audio, Video, or Screencast (to share your screen).
- Capture your content and click Finish. The recording will automatically attach to your post or comment.
- Click Post or Send to share it with your students.
Tip
Use the Screencast option within Private Comments to record a quick "walk-through" of a student’s specific paper. It allows you to point to exact sentences or formulas while explaining your feedback verbally, saving you the time of typing out long explanations.
